Thank you, fren. That is the best explaination for this abbreviation that I ever read about AND the most logical one, considering Havaraa / Transfer Agreemen, "a Nazi goes to Palestine" and that the Zionists already wanted out of Europe in the late 1800s.
That the Zionists wanted that makes also sense considering 'the Pale Settlement'. It seems that this was one big 'ghetto' for the jews in Europe.
"The Pale of Settlement was a western region of the Russian Empire with varying borders that existed from 1791 to 1917 in which permanent residency by Jews was allowed and beyond which Jewish residency, permanent or temporary, was mostly forbidden.
Most Jews were still excluded from residency in a number of cities within the Pale as well. A few Jews were allowed to live outside the area, including those with university education, the ennobled, members of the most affluent of the merchant guilds and particular artisans, some military personnel and some services associated with them, including their families, and sometimes their servants.
The archaic English term pale is derived from the Latin word palus, a stake, extended to mean the area enclosed by a fence or boundary.
The Pale of Settlement included all of modern-day Belarus, Lithuania and Moldova, much of Ukraine and east-central Poland, and relatively small parts of Latvia and what is now the western Russian Federation. It extended from the eastern pale, or demarcation line inside the country, westwards to the Imperial Russian border with the Kingdom of Prussia (later the German Empire) and Austria-Hungary. Furthermore, it comprised about 20% of the territory of European Russia and largely corresponded to historical lands of the former Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth, Cossack Hetmanate, the Ottoman Empire (with Yedisan), Crimean Khanate, and eastern Principality of Moldavia (Bessarabia). "
You mention the Pale of Settlement, which basically describes where much of Ukraine consists of today. However, there's more. Prior to the Pale of Settlement, there was a westward migration of Yiddish people into first eastern Europe and then later into western Europe. They settled and concentrated in city areas that were ghettos. A French derogatory term for 'ghetto' and the Yiddish district of town was called -- 'Jeuerie'; "ghetto", from Anglo-French 'Juerie', Old French 'Juierie' or the later English version 'Jewry'. Later as a result of Thomas Cromwell, these people were allowed en masse into England. The word Jew comes into existence in England, which coincides with a wave of Yiddish immigrants coming from France and Deutschland. Originally the English term 'Jewry' referred to those immigrants coming from Eastern European people who spoke Yiddish (Ashkenazi). The word 'Jew' did not ever exist during the Roman times, nor was it ever derived from the Latin name 'Judea'.
This is exactly why I wonder about posts I see here on Great awakening calling out the Jews. It seems so ignorant. First the word as you point out is a made up version of some French word meaning ghetto. Plus, the blood line is so infiltrated that we don't and can't know who's who except by their actions. And that is what we should judge and call out not a whole race of people.
Great post thank you!
